Brod(cid:373)a(cid:374)(cid:374)"s areas = there are 52 of them, numbered 1-47. Named by the german anatomist korbinian brodmann he numbered them in the order he sectioned them. Vision, color, motion, temporal visual area occipital gyri depth. Perception, vision, association cortex lobule (angular gyrus) reading, speech. Thought, cognition, planning behaviour, aspects of eye movement control. *ba 17 is used as a control for some studies. *it goes fro(cid:373) (cid:1006)(cid:1006) (cid:894)wer(cid:374)i(cid:272)ke"s(cid:895) passes through 39 and 40 goes to 44 (cid:894)bro(cid:272)a"s(cid:895) *every primary cortex has a unimodal cortex: describe speech and language as an example of how information is progressively processed by multiple regions of the cerebral cortex.
